So currently, for 2018, the Bears have $8,182,036 in cap space left. I am under the impression a team can roll that money into the following year, correct? So if that's the case, then they can roll that money into 2019, which is currently $19,698,005, for a total of $27,880,041 cap space, assuming the cap does hit $190M. So if I am correct so far, then cutting Sims and Parkey will free up $2,500,000 ($6M vs $3.5M guaranteed)? So the Bears cap number might be $30,380,041? Please correct me.

Obviously there would be other moves I would make, such as cutting Acho and restructuring Long.

Also, in what year does Mack's contract become "affordable"? Or less of a burden.

-The 20 million already factors in roll over money.

-Parkey costs an additional 1.1 million to cut. That 3.5 million is already factored into the 20 million, the 2020 money gets subtracted.

-Sims does save 6 million.

The Bears can get 30 million with the cuts mentioned, even with Parkey.

Mack’s deal becomes easier/more affordable? Never, he only cost 13 million this season, from here on out his cap hits are REAL.

Do you work with numbers during your day job?
